1. O Good St. Joseph
You obeyed the Father
To take and care
For Mary as your wife.

Your love for God
Enabled you to listen
And contemplate
The Word that gave you life.

Refrain:

O Silent Saint
O patient dear St. Joseph
Help us to hear
And know the will of God.

And when it’s time
To leave this earthly dwelling
Then may you take us
To thyself in holiness.


2. Glorious St. Joseph
Blessed is your fatherhood
You held the Infant Jesus
In your arms.

You taught Him all
You showered Him
With endless love
And He made you
The patron of the Church.

Refrain:

O Silent Saint
O patient dear St. Joseph
Help us to hear
And know the will of God.

And when it’s time
To leave this earthly dwelling
Then may you take us
To thyself in holiness.

Then may you bring us
To the Good Lord Himself.
